It can connect to the internet using either the Ethernet or DSL WAN (Wide Area Network) ports, allowing customers to use it as a either a modem router or a standalone wireless router. Compatible with ADSL2/2+, ADSL, VDSL2, fiber and cable services.

Equipped with powerful hardware NAT acceleration and built-in Gigabit Ethernet, the DSL-N17U gives you full Gigabit internet performance, with a WAN-to-LAN throughput performance of over 900 Mbps.

Two USB 2.0 ports allow the DSL-N17U to share printers and scanners over a network, and it can also operate as high-speed NAS (Network Attached Storage) device when external storage is connected.

The easy-to-use ASUSWRT graphical user interface unlocks the power of the DSL-N17U giving robust control to optimize your network for you. 30-second set-up and easy traffic management means even network newbies can enjoy its sophisticated features, while power users will love its Download Master, IPv6 support, multiple wireless SSIDs and secure VPN access.

  • Two WAN ports for DSL and Ethernet offer double the choice

    The DSL-N17U has two WAN (Wide Area Network) ports, allowing it to be used as a standalone router when not operating as a DSL modem router. You can choose which mode suits your needs at any time, reducing cost and clutter by not having to buy separate power-consuming devices. Whether for a basic home setup or a full wireless network, this dual-WAN design gives you total flexibility.

  • Enhanced signal range and stability

    ASUS AiRadar intelligently improves wireless connections using beamforming technology, and exclusive ASUS RF fine-tuning. This ensures extended coverage, dynamic data speed increases, and enhanced stability.

  • Gigabit Internet browsing with hardware NAT

    Equipped with a powerful hardware NAT acceleration engine and built-in Gigabit Ethernet, the DSL-N17U gives you full Gigabit performance. Its WAN-to-LAN throughput performance is over 900 Mbps, which is more than 4.5 times that of traditional software-based NAT Gigabit routers. This reduces the possibility of bottlenecks on fast internet connections.
